DDoS protection and WAF platform for critical infrastructure
Myra Security operates a certified Security-as-a-Service platform built on open-source monitoring and packet-analysis tools (Prometheus, Elasticsearch, eBPF, tcpdump). The stack and hiring pattern—sales roles outnumbering engineering—suggest a channel-led go-to-market focused on indirect distribution, reinforced by active projects around partner acquisition and relationship management. Pain points cluster around partner operationalization and public-sector procurement, indicating the company is scaling channel capacity rather than core product development.
